Original: "High-mileage electric cars are more reliable than petrol ones, study finds" # Cars # Vehicles # EV # ElectricVehicles h
A new study reported by The Guardian finds that used electric cars with high mileage are more reliable than equivalent petrol vehicles, challenging a common assumption that EV batteries and motors degrade quickly. The findings suggest EVs hold up better over long-term use, a point likely to fuel ongoing debate among drivers considering a switch from combustion-engine cars to electric.
Why now: The finding challenges widespread scepticism about long-term EV durability, prompting discussion among drivers and car buyers.
